Snowbuddies Block of the Month Embroidery Pattern

Welcome! To the
first post of our Blogspot!I will be
sharing on my Blogspot – “Wooly Moments” and my granddaughter Savannah will be
sharing on “Mini Moments”.We jointly
will be writing about what is going on in our lives, new ideas, new pattern
designs, recipes and anything that we think is news worthy from our perspective
as Grandmother (Tee Tee) and Granddaughter (Savannah).I hope you will check out The Little Wool
Shoppe website at www.thelittlewoolshoppe.com

Today, we are
introducing our brand new, designed just for our Bloggers – “Snowbuddies”
embroidery patterns.This design will
have 12 individual blocks, one for each month.

We suggest that
these patterns be traced with a red or brown pigma pen onto an 8” X 8” white
cotton background square. (3/4 yd White for 12 blocks) Simply place the pattern on your light box,
center the fabric square over it and trace lightly. A sunny window works well, too! Our block is
Backstitched in one strand of 12 wt. Sulky Embroidery thread – color #1169.

Talk about
Coloring Outside of the Lines….lots of options…..You could enlarge or shrink
the pattern design after printing it off.You can stitch in whatever color thread you like, or use a variety of
colors.Talk about color….you can shade
with crayons after your embroidery is complete.At the end of one year, you will have 12 blocks to put together into a
fun “Snowperson” wall quilt.I will
have finishing instructions with the last block – May 2013. Need help? Finding fabric, thread and
pens….let us know at 970-686-6346, we can ship to you.

For Anyone
that Subscribes to this Blog or leaves a comment….We will have a drawing on May 15 for 3/4 yd
White Fabric, 1 Spool of Sulky Thread and 1 pigma pen.Winner will be posted.Good Luck!

”Mini
Moments” by Savannah –

I love to
dance!I have been dancing for 7
years.I am on a performance dance team
called – “Dawning Light.”We are 10 – 12
years old.I am the youngest and
smallest.My Tee Tee tells me that I
have big talent.We dance to Christian
music and I am able to interpret the dance through the words of the song.I practice on Tuesdays and Wednesdays.A week ago I danced during our church
services to a song called “Our God is Greater”.It was really fun.

My favorite
bible verse is – I can do all things through Christ who brings me
strength.

Phillipines
4:13.

I hope you will
share this with other girls or daughters or granddaughters.I would love to hear from them.I will be sharing special things with them
and writing in every post.Next time I
will share my recipe for Banana Crème Pie.

I am sooo excited for Connie and Savannah! What an opportunity for the two of you to share your talents with all of us! I love the Snowbuddie and will try to keep up with my stitching. I will be looking forward to that recipe Savannah...

I live on the Western Slope and had a chance to come and check out your shoppe this past March. WOW! My friends and I are in love! The snow pennies quilt caught my eye and I can't wait to accomplish that, too! This embroidery block will be just as fun! Thanks for the chance to win! Good luck, Savannah, on your dancing! I look forward to seeing your recipe for Banana Cream Pie - yum!!!

Connie, you and Savannah have found another HIT together. Your granddaughter takes after you I do believe, full of energy and talent and creative skills. Another project now to do -- and I too am looking forward to that Banana Pie recipe. Betty K

Yea, a new blogger. So happy to hear that things are improving in your world, and that the store is open and heading down it's new path. Wishing you the very best. Your snow buddy BOM is going to be adorable, I can tell already! I am off to print off my copy and start a new fun project!
